- FIG. 28 is a cross-sectional view depicting a digital single lens reflex camera having the image-capturing lens according to the present embodiment.
- FIG. 29 is a flow chart depicting a method for manufacturing the image-capturing lens according to the present embodiment.
- an image-capturing lens has, in order from an object, an object side lens group G 1 and an image side lens group G 2 which is disposed next to the object side lens group G 1 with an air space, and focusing is performed from a distant object to a close object by moving at least a part of the image side lens group G 2 along an optical axis, and image stabilization is performed by moving at least a part of the image side lens group G 2 so as to have components roughly orthogonal to the optical axis.
- an image-capturing lens according to the present embodiment can be compact, and provide excellent optical performance throughout the entire screen.
- the image side lens group G 2 has a positive refractive power. Also to insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that at least a part of the focusing lens group is a shift lens group. In the case when a part of the focusing lens group is the shift lens group, it is particularly preferable that a partial lens group closest to the object in the focusing lens group is the shift lens group.
- Conditional Expression (1) appropriately specifies the total thickness ⁇ d 2 of the image side lens group G 2 on the optical axis, so as to implement both insuring high image forming performance and lighter weight of the focusing lens group. If the conditions exceed the upper limit value of conditional Expression (1), the total thickness ⁇ d 2 of the image side lens group G 2 on the optical axis is too thick. Then the lens portion of the image side lens group G 2 and a lens barrel element to support this lens portion become too large and heavy, and the moving stroke of the focusing lens group is also restricted.
- the refractive power of the image side lens group G 2 In order to focus a close object using the focusing lens group with a small moving stroke, the refractive power of the image side lens group G 2 must be increased, which makes it difficult to correct spherical aberration and coma aberration, and is therefore not desirable. If the conditions are below the lower limit value of conditional Expression (1), the total thickness ⁇ d 2 of the image side lens group G 2 on the optical axis becomes too small. This has the advantage of reducing the size, but a number of lenses constituting the image side lens group G 2 must be decreased, which makes it impossible to correct spherical aberration, coma aberration and curvature of field generated in the image-capturing lens, and is therefore not desirable.
- the upper limit value of the conditional Expression (1) is 0.57. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the upper limit value of the conditional Expression (1) is 0.53.
- the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (1) is 0.29. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (1) is 0.31. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (1) is 0.33.
- the conditional Expression (2) specifies an appropriate range of the focal length ratio between the object side lens group G 1 and the image side lens group G 2 . If the conditions exceed the upper limit value of the conditional Expression (2), the refractive power of the object side lens group G 1 becomes relatively stronger (than the image side lens group G 2 ), which makes it difficult to correct spherical aberration and coma aberration, which are generated in the object side lens group G 1 alone. Furthermore, the refractive power of the image side lens group G 2 becomes relatively weaker, which makes it difficult to correct the curvature of field well, and is therefore not desirable.
- the refractive power of the object side lens group G 1 becomes relatively weaker (than the image side lens group G 2 ), which makes it insufficient to correct spherical aberration, and is therefore not desirable. Furthermore, a relative increase in the refractive power of the image side lens group G 2 increases the coma aberration generated in this image side lens group G 2 too high, and makes it impossible to obtain excellent optical performance.
- conditional Expression (2) is 0.45. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the upper limit value of conditional Expression (2) is 0.43. To still further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the upper limit value of conditional Expression (2) is 0.40.
- the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (2) is 0.10. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (2) is 0.12. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (2) is 0.14.
- Conditional Expression (3) specifies the focal length fs of the shift lens group. If conditions exceed the upper limit value of the conditional Expression (3), the refractive power of the shift lens group becomes strong, which increases the spherical aberration generated in the image side lens group G 2 alone, and is therefore not desirable. If conditions are below the lower limit value of conditional Expression (3), on the other hand, the refractive power of the shift lens group becomes weak, and the image-capturing lens is no longer afocal, which increases the change of curvature of field upon shifting the lens, and is therefore not desirable.
- the upper limit value of the conditional Expression (3) is 1.07. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the upper limit value of the conditional Expression (3) is 1.05.
- the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (3) is 0.83. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (3) is 0.86. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (3) is 0.90.
- r 1 R denotes a radius of curvature of the image side surface of the lens closest to the object (lens L 1 in FIG. 1 ) in the object side lens group G 1
- r 2 F denotes a radius of curvature of the object side surface of the lens disposed at the image side of the lens closest to the object (lens L 2 in FIG. 1 ).
- Conditional Expression (4) is for appropriately correcting the coma aberration and curvature of field which are generated in the object side lens group G 1 alone. If the conditions exceed the upper limit value of conditional Expression (4), the coma aberration and curvature of field generated in the object side lens group G 1 alone can no longer be corrected. Distortion also increases, which is not desirable. If conditions are below the lower limit values of conditional Expression (4), on the other hand, the coma aberration generated in the object side lens group G 1 alone increases so much that performance in the shortest image-capture distance deteriorates, which is not desirable.
- conditional Expression (4) is 22.80. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the upper limit value of conditional Expression (4) is 20.80. To still further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the upper limit value of conditional Expression (4) is 19.00.
- the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (4) is 2.00. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (4) is 3.50. To further insure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (4) is 5.00.
- TL denotes a total length of the image-capturing lens (distance, on the optical axis, from the object side face of the lens disposed closest to the object to the image plane)
- ⁇ d denotes a length, on the optical axis, from a lens surface closest to the object (surface number 1 in FIG. 1 ) in the object side lens group G 1 to a lens surface closest to the image (surface number 15 in FIG. 1 ) in the image side lens group G 2 .
- the conditional Expression (5) specifies the appropriate total length TL of the image-capturing lens for balancing reducing size and improving performance. If conditions exceed the upper limit value of the conditional Expression (5), it is advantageous in terms of correcting aberrations, but the total length of the image-capturing lens increases, and reducing size and improving performance cannot be balanced, which is not desirable. If conditions are below the lower limit value in the conditional Expression (5), on the other hand, it is advantageous in terms of reducing size, but spherical aberration, coma aberration and curvature of field, which are generated in the image-capturing lens, cannot be corrected well. Furthermore it is difficult to increase back focus, which is not desirable.
- conditional Expression (5) is 2.25.
- upper limit value of conditional Expression (5) is 2.20.
- upper limit value of conditional Expression (5) is 2.15.
- the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (5) is 1.55.
- the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (5) is 1.60.
- the lower limit value of the conditional Expression (5) is 1.65.
- the object side lens group G 1 has positive refractive power. According to the present embodiment, not only a long back focus, with respect to the total length of the image-capturing lens, can be implemented, but coma aberration and curvature of field can also be corrected well, by disposing a lens having a weak positive refractive power in the object side lens group G 1 . According to the present embodiment, to sufficiently exhibit these effects, it is preferable that the lens disposed closest to the object (lens L 1 in FIG. 1 ) in the object side lens group G 1 is a concave meniscus lens having a convex surface facing the object.
- the focusing lens group is the shift lens group. It is also preferable that the focal length of the image-capturing lens is fixed.
- the image side lens group G 2 has a positive lens component, and the positive lens component includes at least one spherical surface. Because of this configuration, fluctuation of distortion and curvature of field, which is generated upon focusing, can be corrected well.
- an aperture stop S is disposed between the objective side lens group G 1 and the image side lens group G 2 .
- the refractive power arrangement becomes closer to symmetric, that is, the objective side lens group G 1 having positive refractive power, the aperture stop S, and the image side lens group G 2 having positive refractive power (in order from the object), and curvature of field and distortion can be corrected well.
- the image side lens group G 2 has a negative lens component disposed closest to the object, and positive lens component disposed at the image side of the negative lens component. Furthermore, it is preferable that the image side lens group G 2 has a cemented lens of a negative lens component and a positive lens component, having a positive or negative refractive power. Because of this configuration, chromatic aberration and curvature of field can be corrected well. It is preferable that the cemented lens of the image lens group G 2 has a negative meniscus lens having a concave surface facing the object, and a positive meniscus lens having a convex surface facing the image. Because of this configuration, curvature of field can be corrected well.

- each lens group may be disposed sequentially in the lens barrel one at a time in order along the optical axis, or a part or all of the lenses may be integratedly held on a holding member, and then assembled in the lens barrel.
- step S 2 After assembling each lens in the lens barrel, whether the object image is formed or not is checked in a state where each lens is assembled in the lens barrel, in other words, it is checked whether the center of each lens is aligned (step S 2 ). Then various operations of the image-capturing lens are checked (step S 3 ).
- Examples of the various operations are: a focusing operation in which lenses, which perform focusing from a distant object to a close object (image side lens group G 2 in the present embodiment), move along the optical axis, and a hand motion blur correction operation, in which at least a part of the lenses (image side lens group G 2 in the present embodiment) move so as to have components orthogonal to the optical axis.
